A "Waiver of Signature" authorizes delivery of the package at the carrier’s discretion (if area is secured and protected from weather) without obtaining the recipient’s signature. This option can be selected during checkout of your order. However, please note that we will not be responsible if the package is lost or damaged if this option is selected.
